Ha Arun and Duncan,
Thanks for your answers.
They helped to solve my problem.
I found that the width and height parameters can be specified directly in
the pdf() command, and more useful for me in the R-code chunk in a Sweave
source file, as =============
pdf("wideplot.pdf",width=10,height=3)
xyplot(y~x,data=X,type="l",aspect=0.25)
dev.off()
=============
or
=============
<<fig=TRUE,echo=FALSE,height=10,width=7>>=
xyplot(y~x,data=X,type="l",aspect=0.25)
@
=============
Have a good day. Mine is already.
Gerrit.
